Published by Guardian on Sun, 01 Jan 2012


CONTRARY to belief that blankets are not meant for people in this part of the world because they are heavy and non-absorbent, the type of fibre used will make the difference.

With a search in bed linen stores, purchase of the right one can be made.Blankets are either woven from natural fibres like cotton or wool or synthetic fibres such as acrylic and nylon. Some of the fibres are also used in combination in producing them.Cotton blankets are widely used because of their versatility in look, styling and colour. They are excellent as a layering piece to enhance the bed or to use alone.Qualities and advantagesCotton blankets are soft and comfortable. They are 'breathable' and absorbent.
